Or do what I do and implement perlish things in VB and get the job done natively. Added You'd think people would glark from context that perl is my preferred language. Its just not what I get to use at work so I spend some time creating support perlisms in VB and get my job done easier and faster. And its not that I don't know how the VB-way would have me do it — I just happen to know that by using some sprinklings of perl-thought the resultant code will be clearer and not the ugly gobs it'd be otherwise. Sheesh. Its not as if I actually said "go use VB" or anything.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
